Wow! Peter this is a wonderful video. A Deaf person, Kirsi Grigg, from  
Gallaudet, gives Barack Obama his "Name Sign" in ASL from the Deaf  
Community...which is an O hand and then a B handshape that moves into  
a partial sign for Flag...

Watch the video - I think she describes it beautifully in ASL...

And a lot of Deaf responses said they like the sign...

So now Peter, can you write this in SignWriting for us? If you have  
time, place it in the ASL Dictionary Puddle online:

Many thanks for informing us!

Val ;-)
